How the payment is calculated
Total RVU is work plus practice expense plus malpractice, each adjusted by its GPCI factor, then multiplied by the conversion factor. For 64659 in a non-facility setting with national GPCI: (8.23 + 2.9 + 2.09) × $33.4009 ≈ $441.56. The same code in a facility setting pays about $441.56 because facility PE RVU (2.9) replaces office PE RVU.
